QUINCE COMPOTE



Quince Compote image

Quince is a fruit that grows abundantly throughout the Mediterranean. Though it's too hard and tart to bite into, it has a wonderful perfume. I like to combine it with apples in this simple compote.

Categories     dessert, side dish

Time 1h

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 7

Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 pound quince
1 pound apples
1/3 cup agave syrup
1/2 cup water
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 vanilla bean, split and scraped

Steps:

  • Fill a large bowl with water, and add the juice of 1/2 lemon. Quarter the quinces and apples, and place the pieces you aren't working with in the water while you peel, core and cut each quarter crosswise into 1 inch-thick pieces.
  • Combine the agave syrup and water in a large, heavy saucepan, and bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer. Drain the quinces and apples, and add to the pot with the cinnamon and vanilla. Bring to a simmer, cover, reduce the heat and simmer, stirring often, for one hour. The quince will be soft and pinkish, and the apples may have broken down into apple sauce (depending on what type you use). Serve hot or cold.

QUINCE COMPOTE



Quince Compote image

This is a wonderful use for quinces if you can get your hands on some. If you like, you can puree the compote but I usually like it chunky. You can also serve it with vanilla ice cream or plain whipped cream.

PINK WINE QUINCE COMPOTE



Pink Wine Quince Compote image

My quince tree's boughs are bending to the ground under the weight of the fruit. Quince is a lovely, old-fashioned fruit that deserves to be better known. This is one of my favorite recipes, from the Ultimate Rice Cooker Cookbook, by Hensperger and Kaufmann.

Provided by duonyte

Categories     Dessert

Time 55m

Yield 6 cups, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups fruity blush wine
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 3/4 cups sugar
5 whole cloves
1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
2 cinnamon sticks, 4-in . each
2 slices candied ginger
3 medium quinces, about 1 1/2 lbs

Steps:

  • Place all ingredients, except quince, in the rice cooker bowl.
  • Quarter and peel the quinces with a sharp paring knife. With a melon baller or knife, remove the entire core area, cleaning out all the hard bits. Cut each quarter into 4 slices. (Recently, I've just peeled the quince and then sliced around the core, avoiding the need to scrape out the seed area). Place the quince slices in the wine mixture. Close the cover and set for the porridge cycle. Open the cover twice during the cook cycle to release the steam.
  • When cycle finishes, check the fruit - it should be very tender. If it is not, reset for a second cycle and check every 15 minutes until desired texture is achieved.
  • Remove the bowl from the cooker and let cool. Pour the compote into a storage container, cover and refrigerate overnight. Keeps for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
  • Note1: It's very important to clean the core carefully -there is a white membrane that will never soften.
  • Note2: white zinfandel or a jug vin rose work fine; authors also suggest a Blanc de Pinot Noir, Lancer's or Mateus.
  • Note3: I use only about half to 2/3 of the sugar and find this quite sweet enough.
  • Note4: I see no reason why this could not be made in a regular rice cooker, a slow cooker, or simmered in a saucepan on the stove, but then you are on your own as to the time. Cooking time is based on my rice cooker, yours may differ.

QUINCE-GINGER COMPOTE



Quince-Ginger Compote image

Use this tart compote to make our Pumpkin Layer Cake. Overly ripe quinces may not retain their shape as they simmer, so it's best to use ones that have just ripened.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield Makes about 7 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups off-dry white wine, such as Riesling
1 1/2 cups water, plus more if needed
1 1/2 cups sugar
12 thin slices peeled fresh ginger (from one 2-inch piece)
3 pounds just ripened quince (about 4), peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch wedges
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

  • Bring wine, water, sugar, and ginger to a simmer in a medium saucepan over high heat. Cook, stirring, until sugar dissolves, about 5 minutes. Add quinces. (Add more water if needed to cover fruit.) Reduce heat, and simmer gently until quinces are tender, 25 to 45 minutes depending on ripeness of fruit.
  • Transfer quinces to a bowl using a slotted spoon. Bring liquid in saucepan to a simmer, and cook until slightly syrupy, about 5 minutes. Remove, and discard ginger. Stir in lemon juice. Pour syrup over quinces. Let stand until cool. Refrigerate if desired.

CITRUS-VANILLA COMPOTE



Citrus-Vanilla Compote image

Top our Ricotta Cheesecake with this compote.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Healthy Recipes     Gluten-Free Recipes

Yield Makes 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 red or pink grapefruit (do not peel), preferably organic, washed well
1 navel orange (do not peel), preferably organic, washed well
1/4 cup water, plus more for pan
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 vanilla bean, split and scraped, pod reserved
Pinch of salt

Steps:

  • Cut peels from grapefruit and orange. Cut pith from peels, and slice into very thin strips. Slice fruit along membranes to release segments into a bowl. Squeeze juice from membranes into bowl; discard membranes. Pour cup juice through a fine sieve into a small bowl.
  • Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Cook citrus peels for 1 minute; drain. Bring cup water, the sugar, and vanilla seeds and pod to a boil in a clean medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring until sugar dissolves. Reduce heat to low. Add reserved juice and peels and the salt; cook for 2 minutes. Let cool completely.
  • Discard vanilla pod. Toss syrup with reserved fruit.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe quinces: Select firm, fragrant quinces with a yellow-golden color. Avoid fruits with bruises or blemishes.
  • Peel and core the quinces carefully: Use a sharp knife to remove the skin and core, taking care not to lose too much of the fruit.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot: This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the compote from sticking.
  • Add sugar gradually: Start with a small amount of sugar and increase it to taste. This will help to prevent the compote from becoming too sweet.
  • Cook the compote until it thickens: This should take about 20-30 minutes. Stir the compote frequently to prevent it from sticking.
  • Let the compote cool before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the compote to thicken further.

Conclusion:

Quince compote is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed on its own or used as a topping for yogurt, ice cream, or pancakes. It is also a great way to use up ripe quinces. With its sweet and tart flavor and beautiful golden color, quince compote is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
